Yeah, I saw that and agree - I just don't want to spend the time to do
all that now.  I basically have this week to get them all moved over
into a basically functional state and will submit patches to do this and
the below as follow-ons once the basics are out of the way.

At the moment it doesn't, and I'll probably submit a patch to do that
for everything that it make sense for again after things are functional
with the simple changes first.

I don't really want to let the meta SRCREV float - I've run into a
couple nasty problems in the past letting that happen. i.e. nobody does
runtime testing of the BSPs when they change the meta SRCREV in the base
recipe.

Agreed, if the machine branch changes to standard/default/base, I'll
change that too.
